FOOTBALLERS at Wilkie Cumberbatch have received some welcome tips from some British Airways Legends ahead of next week’s playoffs in the Bico Primary Schools’ Football Competition.
Former Liverpool star Stan Collymore was one of the “legends” who relished the chance to pass on tips to the students yesterday.  
Collymore, whose Barbadian father came from St Andrew, said he was very impressed with the keenness of the students as well as their basic skills level.
Twenty-two enthusiastic players from the school took part in the session which focused on ball handling skills, passing drills and goalkeeping tips. Collymore was joined by Alan Stubbs and Lee Carsley of Everton, Paul Hall of Caribbean All Stars and Arsenal’s David Hillier.
